My Standards Are Not Too High For Girls

5,6 gils r gr8 2.

I have to say, when I was younger (and not fat, old and unattractive :rolleyes:) I dated some Grade A First Class assholes and dipshits. I’m talking unhygenic, unemployed, drug addicted fucktards.

Sooooo that begs the question about how truly repulsive you must be, seriously.

must not feed the troll, must not fee oh WTF; this is why you have low standards mate. You sound like a complete loser.

Sleeping on the streets, low $ paid job, hookers etc. You are a prize catch..

I might be willing to feed the troll. It sounds like he lives in West Little Rock, so offering him a free meal to get a chance to chat with him might be interesting. :smiley:

I’m guessing they’re more distracted by the “homeless because you spend on your money on whores” thing. Just a hunch.

Yakuza will never pick up a nice girl because he has an inferiority complex. Jeez I had girlfriends and even the occasional casual root when I worked in retail and no didn’t have to pay.

I really wish you’d start typing the word “to” instead of replacing it with the number. It’s much more difficult to read and understand your posts than it ought to be.

That’s a pretty big assumption.

What’s with all this unnecessary teasing? So the OP can’t exactly spell by SDMB standards, and he has a way oversimplifying things to the annoyance of many, but listen to what he’s actually trying to say (I hope this is a fair paraphrase):

  1. I have a hard time getting girlfriends who aren’t paid, and there are others like me.

  2. Despite what people think, it’s not because my standards for physical attractiveness are exceptionally high – she just has to be in the top 40% to 30% by my judgment. [Reply: That’s like one in every 3 or 4 women, not a particularly tough or abnormal selection criterion, is it?]

  3. This isn’t because I don’t value any other traits, but because women who I feel no physical chemistry towards simply don’t turn me on to the point where I want to be with them and/or show them to my family. Still, I’d rather choose a passably attractive woman with a good heart rather than a drop-dead-gorgeous woman without one.

  4. [Reply: It is implied and explained later that he can’t be with the women of his dreams] Left with either women I don’t find attractive or attractive women who I have to pay for, I choose the latter [out of desperation].

  5. [Later on] I think all of this is because I have a low-income job.

Now, I don’t know about #4… but is anything else he’s trying to say really that controversial? How many of you would really want to be with somebody you don’t find at least tolerably attractive? And would you really altogether deny that income plays a role in mate selection, not always, but often enough that it’s probably something a male (typically) should at least be slightly concerned about?

I know this is the Dope and all, where we value non-abbreviation and punctuation almost as a religion unto itself, but really… can we at least TRY to comprehend the substance of his post? For example, so maybe income isn’t as big a factor as he believes. Fine, let him know. But the rest of the mocking, slamming, etc… this isn’t even the Pit. What the heck?

I agree, I had a human insult ready, but decided to pack it in.

Still hoping for that picture.

Given your circumstances and proclivities, if you are really 8+ or even if you just have a decent boner, you might try a career in porn.

Good opening to a date. :smiley:

What if you worked at Apple? Apple is a “retail store”? Set your sights higher, man.

You made me literally LOL in the quiet zone of the train. Now people are looking at me disapprovingly.

Yes. Kneel before Zod, jjimm.

Have you read his other threads?

Dude, I was the one who said that your standards were too high in the other thread, and I was pretty much joking. I just found it funny that after lamenting endlessly about how no ‘free girls’ will give you the time of day you then admitted that actually you would only go out with hot girls. It’s not that I don’t think you should be attracted to the people you date, it’s just that it’s a bit weird to say ‘OMG no girls will date me, life is so unfair!’, and then turn around and say ‘haha, no uglies allowed over here!’.

I think that’s funny is all. But I wasn’t serious when I said your standards are too high. If anything, if you are frequently getting hookers and yet you only spend a total of $400 month on them, I’m guessing your standards are actually pretty low.

Many girls are fine with dating guys who work in retail. Most girls are going to be turned off by a guy who thinks it’s at all normal or okay to sleep in an Internet cafe every night and play video games all day in some mysterious public location*. But then most girls are also turned off by guys who make a lot of stuff up, so that might be a problem for you too.
*seriously, I still want to know what public location you imagine would allow this to happen?

Yes.

In your quest to find the right woman, might I suggest that you stop typing 2 for the word to?

So then you understand that he’s chosen to be homeless in order to live the life he wants to live, and yet thinks it’s the fact that he works retail that is his problem?

People are not assuming ignorance on his part just because of his typing style.

Yes.

It’s not a matter of fighting ignorance. There’s nothing wrong with saying “It’s because you’re homeless, not because you work retail.”

That’s different from the meaningless teasing that constitutes the majority of this thread and many of his other ones.
